Combined Bankart and HAGL lesion associated with anterior shoulder instability

Arthroscopy. 1997 Dec;13(6):749-52. doi: 10.1016/s0749-8063(97)90012-8.

Abstract

Traumatic anterior shoulder instability has been shown to be associated with a spectrum of capsulolabral pathology, including separation of the labrum (Bankart lesion), capsular rupture, and humeral avulsion of the glenohumeral ligaments (HAGL lesion). We describe a case of combined Bankart and HAGL lesions, a condition that has not been described before. Careful anatomic repair of both components of this bipolar capsular injury resulted in an excellent outcome.
